Dear CCP,

I have been using this weapon a lot now and frankly all this nonsense that the weapon is useless is false. Talk to any of my mates and they will tell you how I left My mass driver in the forgotten pile for it. This weapon does not need to be touched in any way whatsoever... Do not touch it or the bunny gets it. The only reason people say this weapon is UP (under powered) is because they haven't given it a chance. I specced into level 1 and bought 100 of them. Used them up and then bought 100 more. I am now up to the proto level and am loving it.

PLEASE CCP DO NOT DUMB DOWN THIS WEAPON

CCP; if you feel the need to make any changes at all, make the changes to the skills that modify it. Below is a list of changes that will make the plasma cannon be useful in the right hands

1. Plasma cannon operation: change the 5% to charge time for a 10% to charge time. This will cut the charge time to .3 second instead of the .45 we get by having the skill at level 5. This would make the weapon more responsive when in the hands of a skilled user.
2. The ammo capacity skill: change it to 1 extra cylinder per level. That way we get one more shot per level out of an already crazily low ammo supply which is currently 9. That will bring the total count to 14 at level 5 which requires a heavy investment and anyone who chooses to get the skill to level 5 deserves the extra ammo.
3. Change rapid reload skill from 3% per level to 10% per level for a reload time, at level 5 mind you, of 1.75 second which can be rounded up to 2 seconds from the 2.9 reload speed we have at level 5 right now. (shaving off 1.5 seconds)

CCP, This weapon is awesome, inspiring and satisfying to use. Having the knowledge that you have mastered such a difficult weapon is a reward in it's own right. If you change this weapon the only reward left will be knowing that you used it when it was truly a weapon to be mastered.

Isn't it the Gallente AV weapon?
It's **** for the job, I laugh when I see it fly harmlessly past everything.

There's too many things wrong with this post...

The PLC is inferior to all weapons except the laser rifle. I can do close to 500 dmg with the charge shot of a PRO scrambler rifle and I get to keep shooting, the Scrambler pistol easily tears apart Caldari dropsuits, the AR can do more dmg than PLC over time and has more range, Shotguns can OHK multiple times, Forge Gun is good for AV and AI, and HMGs demolish multiple incoming infantry. Instead of using the PLC to drop shields I could just simply use a Flux grenade because it does massive dmg to shields and has bigger splash radius.

With the exception of #2, those suggestions are downright terrible:

1. Current operation skill will always be worthless no matter how high the value.
3. Might as well change all reload skills to 5% bonus
